PRIOR DAY TOTALS:
The population of Contra Costa County is about 1.1-million.
Wondering if we can find out the incr. in our town everyday, is it in the one big retirement/elderly community or just general population? Would that info even be available? Thank you. Stay healthy 😷
@MSJ – The math would not be easy and also involves too much guesswork to make the report you asked for useful.
One area of guesswork is that if there are between 1 and 10 cases at a facility that the county only reports that there are cases but not the number.
Another area of guesswork is that while the county reports the number of resident cases and number of staff cases, again not reporting a number if it’s between 1 and 10, we don’t know what city the staff lives in. As these tend to be near minimum wage jobs I suspect it’s rare that a staff member lives in the same city where they work. The staff members may not live in Contra Costa County meaning their numbers would not show up in the total cases for the county.
Statewide positive tests, hospitalizations, and deaths appear to have peaked for this second wave and are starting a decline. Same in other hot spots like Arizona, Texas, and Florida.
Yet, we have people like Senator Steve Glazer who we are in a state of irrational panic and think the world is ending and we need to shut down everything.
Senator Glazer: you need a vacation. Find a safe space for yourself out in a remote location and quarantine.
Second wave? Ha!!!, Contra Costa is catching up with the rest of the country………
COVID is a tyrants dream. We will always be in the first wave waiting for the next. Wake me up after the November red wave.
@ Antonious
Catching up? Our numbers are falling. How is that catching up?
That 7.9% average is troubling. Isn’t 8% the big danger number?
I believe the only time anything was trashed was on May 31, 2020 with most of that occurring in the daytime that spilled into the early evening. When and where in Contra Costa county have cities been trashed at night?
In early June I asked various people who I thought would have participated in the protests (based on their age and political interests) if they had done so. None of them had protested or at least would not self-identify as a protester. I have no idea of what the protest demographics are and if they are out of work or from out of town. As the photos show what appear to be a well dressed white middle class crowd I suspect the protest in Clayton was largely by residents of Clayton, north Concord bordering Clayton, and possibly some from the Ygnacio Valley area of Walnut Creek.
